I have a kitten who is 9 weeks, it is tiny still but no matter what we do
he insists on going upstairs, he shoots up like a rocket when he gets a
chance but the only thing is we have gaps in our stairs so he could jump at
any point, he seems fine but no matter what we do we cant stop him, if he
fell would he survive? He seems really good at going up and down he has had
a sniff at the gap and knows they are there, is he okay to go upstairs? I
know it could as be bad for his joints in his legs!

A grown cat may hurt the kitten and so will a dog, based on how they react,
it’s good to keep the kitten separate from them for a few weeks, let them
smell them under the door or visit for short times and give them treats.
It’s really important to give the old cat all the attention when they are
together to let the old cat know that it is still it’s territory or it
won’t like the kitten and may start “spraying” or peeing on stuff to mark
it’s territory, it’s less likely to do that if it’s fixed.

No one really cares much where I live. Not only are there thousands of cats
in the streets, there are thousands of kids living in the street begging
for money every day to survive, doing drugs just so they can kill the pain
of being hungry.
